Arthritis

Osteoarthritis is a chronic disease of the joints that usually starts after the age of 40 and has a gradual onset. The joints deteriorate because of faulty or deficient repair of bone and cartilage in the joint. The average diet in North America is lacking in the minerals that support the repair of bone and cartilage, which helps explain why osteoarthritis is concern for so many people. Osteoarthritis causes stiffness and pain when the joint is used and is often worse in the mornings. As the disease progresses, it can also cause inflammation and swelling in the joints, decreasing the ability to exercise and maintain your mobility. + Read more >

Rheumatoid arthritis differs from osteoarthritis because it is an autoimmune disease that attacks the joints. Joint damage in people suffering from rheumatoid arthritis is caused when the body attacks its own tissues. Joint pain can move around the body, symptoms may come and go, and can be triggered by stress or viral infections. Rheumatoid arthritis can also produce symptoms that include fatigue, poor appetite, weight loss and a low-grade fever in addition to the joint pain, stiffness and swelling. Conventional treatment of rheumatoid arthritis often involves many powerful drugs that can have significant side effects and some of these drugs are known to deplete the body of necessary vitamins and minerals. Fortunately there are proven arthritis and joint pain supplements available to help reduce joint pain and stiffness regardless of which type of arthritis you have, allowing you to keep active and fit. Arthritis and joint pain supplements containing glucosamine and chondroitin have been proven to reduce joint pain more importantly, help repair the cartilage that is degenerating. This is especially important to those who are looking for a natural alternative to pharmaceutical anti-inflammatory medications, which have many side effects and over time can actually accelerate the degeneration of joint tissue. Other important arthritis and joint pain supplements include Vitamin C and E, Essential Fatty Acids, Curcumin, MSM, Grape Seed extract and Arnica. Some arthritis and joint pain supplements are also available as topical products to provide more immediate relief to swollen, painful joints and include Arnica and Capsaicin. It is also important to incorporate gentle exercise like walking, swimming or water aerobics into your daily routine to help maintain joint motion and muscle strength. For those with food sensitivities avoiding aggravating foods, particularly those in the nightshade family such green peppers, eggplant, potatoes and tomatoes, can be helpful.

Apple Cider Vinegar has been used for centuries for countless purposes. It is a ancient folk remedy known to relieve just about any ailment you can think of. More recently, apple cider vinegar supplements are used to aid a variety of health conditions including weight loss, digestive difficulties, joint pain, blood thinning and infections. It is also an excellent source of naturally occurring potassium.

Resveratrol is a polyphenolic compound found in various berries (cranberry, blueberry, grapes) and herbs. Studies with trans-resveratrol have reported a diverse range of benefits in the areas of heart health, immunity and inflammation. Research has also revealed that trans-resveratrol mimics the biological longevity effects of a calorie-restricted diet. There is no doubt that many among us, in the context of dinner-party banter or some other setting conducive to the transfer of anecdotal wisdom, have heard that a glass of wine a day is good for your health. ‘A healthy heart and a long life' is usually the jist of this particular nugget of scientifically secular populist enlightenment. The long life that is inferred is attributable to a substance that the scientifically observant elite have identified as resveratrol, a phytonutrient originating -in this case - in the vinyards. Resveratrol, in turn, elicits this wondrous effect largely by mimicking many of the biological chain of events seen in the practice of Calorie Restriction Optimum Nutrition (CRON), or simply Caloric Restriction (CR).

Curcumin 95 is a standardized extract of curcuminoid complex extracted from the South Indian spice turmeric (Curcuma longa Linn.). Research supports the wide-ranging health benefits of curcuminoids, especially curcumin, including antioxidant effects, modulation of the production of inflammatory signal molecules (prostanoids and leukotrienes), and inhibition of the growth of cells which have not properly differentiated or whose growth pattern is abnormal. Curcumin is also a key botanical extract in traditional Ayurvedic medicine.

The Curcumin and Nitrates in InflaNox work synergistically to battle against inflammation caused by free-radical damage and auto-immunity by quenching free-radicals, modulating immune factors and improving healing.

SAMe 400 is s-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe), a key biological factor that drives a wide variety of essential biochemical reactions, including the methylation of DNA, catecholamine neurotransmitters (brain messenger-molecules), phospholipids, hormones, and chondrocytes (cartilage-forming cells). Research suggests SAMe's ability to support healthy mood function and to relieve symptoms and reduce functional impairment in osteoarthritis. SAMe 400 provides a full 400 mg of true SAMe ion per enterically coated tablet, with a minimum of 70% biologically active (S),S-diastereoisomer.
S-Adenosyl-l-methiononine, or SAMe, is a naturally-occurring physiological agent in the human body that forms an integral part of the methylation cycle. It is formed in the body through the combination of the amino acid methionine and adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This compound was first isolated in Italy in 1952 and is now a prescription drug in much of Europe, most commonly it seems, as an anti-depressant. Safe, energizing, and purported to treat depression twice as fast as standard anti-depressants such as Prozac, SAMe has become more popular than the latter in the nation of its discovery, in spite of being more expensive there. SAMe is also heavily studied for its ability to alleviate the conditions of osteoarthritis as well as to treat liver disease.

There are a lot of similar formulas out there to choose from in this category, but Enerex Healthy Joints is alone in using vegan glucosamine for those with shellfish allergies along with effective amounts of Bamboo Silica to ensure that degeneration ceases and regeneration begins.

MSM (methyl sulfonyl methane) supplies biologically active sulfur in a safe, nontoxic way.Methyl-sulfonyl-methane (MSM) is a naturally occurring sulfur compound derived from pine trees. MSM and its related compounds are the source of 85% of the sulfur found in every cell of all living organisms. It is the fourth most plentiful mineral found in a healthy body and it also occurs naturally in fresh, organic, fruits and vegetables. However, most of the MSM in our food is lost in washing, cooking, steaming, packaging and preparation. In short, modern agriculture and food processing have robbed our food of the natural sulfur we need. Naturally occurring sulfur, such as that found in supplements using Lignisul MSM, is not to be confused with inorganic sulfides, sulfites and sulfates, to which, many people are allergic.
